Eraser-X, I agree with PH that it was best for both sides the way it worked out. I certainly am glad that the White Sox didn't sign him to the contract Detroit agreed to with Ordoñez. But there's no need to demonize him. The Sox aren't the only club that does that, by any means. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a club that doesn't do that.

Re: Jesse Crain. He's had a pretty good year, actually. I had him on my fantasy team all year until recently. I ditched him to pick up McCarthy. Crain hasn't been striking out many batters, however, a lot fewer than in the minors or during his call-up last year.

I just threw Crain out there. I have Santana on my fantasy team, and I've seen him put up good lines without the win because some reliever who's supposed to be good botched it.

Is Trammell on the hot seat? He's one manager that I don't know much about, as far as strengths, weaknesses, fan gripes. I don't think he's been given great teams, so it seems like he's doing alright with what he has.
